Birth.  Childhood.  Families.  Real Life.

Photos tell the stories of your life.

Your baby's birth is the ultimate "documentary" story. It's a story that every mom remembers forever.  Who was there? What did things look like? How did your husband take care of you? The memories of the small details may fade over time but photos help you remember the tiny wrinkles, big yawns, & how excited (and tired!) you were.  Birth photography has been my specialty since 2012.

Documentary stories are for your every day too, not only for birth.

Your daily routines will be their memories of childhood - school mornings, weekend chores, family dinners, and bedtime rituals. And as your kids grow, family routines change. Life with a toddler sure is different than life with a tween.  Soon those kids who loved bedtime stories on your lap will head out to college and you will be wishing for the bedtime stories again.

Your every day moments matter.

Every year is a new chapter of your family's story.  Don't let those stories pass you by because in a blink, you'll be sending graduation announcements for that toddler. Let's document your REAL family.

Rethink your family photos this year.

So this year, consider skipping a posed photo in matching clothes smiling at the camera.  Let your kids be themselves and wear their favorite superhero cape and socks that don't match while riding their bikes in the driveway. Your husband can wear his favorite paint stained t-shirt and mow the yard. Don't stress if a kid is pouting or in time-out, that is real life. Leave the laundry on the couch and the toys on the living room floor. Let your family be in the place they love, with the people they love, doing the things they love.
